About Naomi
Naomi Brookes draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and changes in life. She is a BACP counsellor with three years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. Naomi aims to make sessions calm and straightforward so people can talk about what matters to them.
Naomi focuses on practical strategies that can be used between sessions. She helps people rebuild confidence, sort out relationship difficulties, and find ways to cope with shifting life stages.
How Naomi works
She also supports those dealing with feelings of emptiness, isolation, guilt, or the impact of past abuse. Her work also addresses specific pressures such as chronic pain, illness and disability, divorce and separation, and midlife concerns including perimenopause-related change. Naomi listens for patterns linked to attachment and abandonment and helps people understand how these shape current relationships and choices.
Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and goals. Naomi uses straightforward conversation and simple exercises to explore feelings and try new ways of coping. She aims to help people take small steps that make daily life easier.
Naomi encourages anyone feeling overwhelmed to reach out. She explains the process, works at a steady pace, and reviews progress regularly so plans can be adjusted as things change.

How Naomi's approaches work online
Naomi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and builds straightforward coping skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach examines attachment and relationship patterns to understand why some relationships feel difficult and to try new ways of relating.Finding the right way to work is part of the process. Naomi will discuss options with each person and will help decide which techniques fit best with their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for longer conversations and exercises that benefit from seeing each other. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is low or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging suits shorter check-ins, quick reflections, or people who like writing things down between sessions. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines.
